  • Lake Baikal Russian Federation

    Lake Baikal Russian Federation

    LAKE BAIKAL RUSSIAN FEDERATION Lake Baikal is in south central Siberia close to the Mongolian border. It is the largest, oldest by 20 million years, and deepest, at 1,638m, of the world's lakes. It is 3.15 million hectares in size and contains a fifth of the world's unfrozen surface freshwater. Its age and isolation and unusually fertile depths have given it the world's richest and most unusual lacustrine fauna which, like the Galapagos islands’, is of outstanding value to evolutionary science. The exceptional variety of endemic animals and plants make the lake one of the most biologically diverse on earth. Threats to the site: Present threats are the untreated wastes from the river Selenga, potential oil and gas exploration in the Selenga delta, widespread lake-edge pollution and over-hunting of the Baikal seals. However, the threat of an oil pipeline along the lake’s north shore was averted in 2006 by Presidential decree and the pulp and cellulose mill on the southern shore which polluted 200 sq. km of the lake, caused some of the worst air pollution in Russia and genetic mutations in some of the lake’s endemic species, was closed in 2009 as no longer profitable to run. COUNTRY Russian Federation NAME Lake Baikal NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SERIAL SITE 1996: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria vii, viii, ix and x. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription. Justification for Inscription The Committee inscribed Lake Baikal the most outstanding example of a freshwater ecosystem on the basis of: Criteria (vii), (viii), (ix) and (x).

Shaughnessy] New Zealand Fur-seal–Arctocephalus forsteri [G. Ross] Crab-eater Seal–Lobodon carcinophagus [P. Shaughnessy] 56. OTARIIDAE AND PHOCIDAE DEFINITION AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION Pinnipeds are aquatic carnivores. They differ from other mammals in their streamlined shape, reduction of pinnae and adaptation of both fore and hind feet to form flippers. In the skull, the orbits are enlarged, the lacrimal bones are absent or indistinct and there are never more than three upper and two lower incisors. The cheek teeth are nearly homodont and some conditions of the ear that are very distinctive (Repenning 1972). Both superfamilies of pinnipeds, Phocoidea and Otarioidea, are represented in Australian waters by a number of species (Table 56.1). The various superfamilies and families may be distinguished by important and/or easily observed characters (Table 56.2). King (1983b) provided more detailed lists and references. These and other differences between the above two groups are not regarded as being of great significance, especially as an undoubted fur seal (Australian Fur-seal Arctocephalus pusillus) is as big as some of the sea lions and has some characters of the skull, teeth and behaviour which are rather more like sea lions (Repenning, Peterson & Hubbs 1971; Warneke & Shaughnessy 1985). The Phocoidea includes the single Family Phocidae – the ‘true seals’, distinguished from the Otariidae by the absence of a pinna and by the position of the hind flippers (Fig.

Fax: 0224-33-3831 1 ABSTRACT The effect of the Younger Dryas cold reversal on the survival of Late Glacial hunter-gatherers in the Japanese Archipelago is evaluated, through a synthetic compilation of 14C dates obtained from excavated Late Glacial and initial Holocene sites (332 14C dates from 88 sites). The estimated East Asian monsoon intensity and vegetation history based on the loess accumulations in varved sediments and pollen records in and around the Japanese Archipelago suggest an abrupt change to cool and dry climate at the onset of Younger Dryas, coupled with the Dansgaard-Oeschger Cycles as recorded in Greenland.

    Aquatic Mammals 2012, 38(2), 189-203, DOI 10.1578/AM.38.2.2012.189 Historical Perspectives Nobuyuki Miyazaki (born 4 August 1946) Nobuyuki Miyazaki began his career as a research associate at the University of Ryukyus, Japan, obtaining his Ph.D. in 1975 under Professor Nishiwaki. He established a Japanese research team focused on marine pollution and hazardous chemicals using marine mammals as an indica- tor species. Dr. Miyazaki organized the research project “Coastal Marine Environment” that was conducted by United Nations University, Ocean Research Institute of The University of Tokyo, and Iwate Prefecture. He worked as general coor- dinator of the Japanese Society for Promotion of Science’s Multilateral Core Univer sity Program “Coastal Marine Science” with other distinguished scientists from five Asian countries. In collabora- tion with Dr. Y. Naito, he developed an advanced Nobuyuki Miyazaki (Photo courtesy of John Anderson) data logger and camera logger, and he also estab- lished the “Bio-Logging Science” program at the University of Tokyo. Since 1990, he has conducted international ecological research of Lake Baikal in cooperation with colleagues from Russia, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Switzerland, and the United States. Dr. Miyazaki has published more than 270 English and 13 Japanese peer-reviewed papers, nine English and 51 Japanese books, and seven Eng lish and 109 Japanese reports. He also has given 316 presentations at national and inter- national conferences. 190 Miyazaki Seal Survey in Eurasian Waters in Collaboration with Russian Scientists Nobuyuki Miyazaki, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus, The University of Tokyo, Japan E-mail: [email protected] I.

Its impact on regional hydrological processes may influence society through industrial water supplies, food productivity and energy use. In order to predict future rates of climate change, reliable and accurate reconstructions of regional temperature and rainfall are required from all over the world to test climate models and better predict future climate variability.
